RABBA MAIN KYA KAROON releases this Friday and the film also marks a comeback of sorts for Riya Sen who would be seen in a lead role after a hiatus. Moreover, she is also going through an image makeover of sorts in this out and out family film by Amrit Sagar who debuted with National Award winning 1971 a few years back.

"He is changing tracks with RABBA MAIN KYA KAROON which is also the launch pad of his brother Akash Chopra," informs a source, "Though the film has debutant Tahira Kochchar opposite Akash, Riya is paired with Arshad."

In the entire film, Riya would be donned in 'salwar-kameez', something that is opposite to the image that she has carried for around a decade now.

Laughs Amrit, "Yes, I had a particular look in my mind for the leading lady in the film. I felt Riya fitted the bill since she hasn't been seen in this avatar. She was apprehensive though to begin with. In fact right through the shoot she used to ask me if she could don some more modern outfits that go with her ultra-glam image. I used to tell her that I was very clear how she had to come across in this film. She is a different Riya that you would see in the film."
